Discover AutoDS's internal system for tracking numbers conversions
Having all your orders appear as being sent from one zip code is a benefit when dropshipping, since you can have a specific warehouse location to display your buyers when they track their packages. Here is where QTrack comes in.
Qtrack advantages
So what makes Qtrack different from other tracking systems?
First, it's AutoDS' internal system, which is always better to use our in-house features as it will have the best integration.
Second, QTrack numbers are the most accurate, and they know when the package arrived as expected from the supplier. It will also show that the package arrived at the buyer's address the same way he wrote it in the order, and your shipping location display is based on the zip code you set in AutoDS.
Third, orders are marked as delivered on eBay, and the carrier is listed as "other." This ensures that your delivery information updated on eBay.
QTrack Compatibility and Regions
QTrack works with any US suppliers (from AutoDS-supported suppliers) that ship from the US and use UPS/USPS/FedEx, meaning all your orders from US suppliers will have the same location and zip code.
Additionally, QTrack supports auto-ordering in other regions, including France, Germany, the United Kingdom, and Australia.
Important to know 📚
QTrack is not yet recognized by eBay, which is an advantage since eBay won't identify you as a dropshipper. On the other hand, shipping tracks currently will not be supported and the status of the order will not be updated on eBay which can be considered a disadvantage. However, you can win any case by appealing and attaching the tracking link. An exception for eBay US, as the shipping track will be updated to shipped and delivered accordingly.
Your order will get the QTracking number based on the estimated delivery time and not when the order is shipped.
In regions besides US suppliers, messages from the carrier will be in their native languages and not in standard English.
